We\'ve got our own headlining tour in Europe in 2010, as far as Leith showing me a thing or two, well it\'s not 2006 anymore, nuff said.

:lol: Ahhh upstate\'s gettin\' defensive.
d00d we both know how good you\'ve gotten but there\'s ALWAYS room to grow.

I actually was asked to find a 3rd for our crew but didn\'t call you figuring you had a gig.

I did think of you though fucker.

Wow, Leith!  Nice gig.  Maybe you\'ll run into boombox there.

Could be arranged - not the biggest Cranberries fan, but they did have some fine tunes and my band are currently doing Zombie (what band with a girl singer doesn\'t?!!). Now if someone could get comped in... ;)

Well done on getting the gig though, leith. You\'\'ll be knackered, but a way to travel the world for free. And we\'ll DEFINITELY have to hook up if Phish are over here then too.


I already have you on my list of folks to get in which to my amazement has quite a few names.

does anyone care?

By the amount of congrats from friends I think so fuckwad.

hey you flaming west coast shithead, thats a line from a Cranberries song, you know nothing douchenozzle.  why don\'t you get your **** together before touring w/ some band you can\'t even pick out a common lyric to.

You get what you give and you have never been friendly towards me so how do you expect me to react?

As far as lyrics go why the **** would I need to know them to light the show? Esp. those lyrics in context to the song would have nothing to do with the lighting.

**** you\'re stupid.

Before you go spouting off try and have some **** knowledge abt the subject first.

i\'ve always been friendly to you in person, sorry you get your panties in a wad on the interwebs.  grow thicker skin you west coast fairy.

You\'ve been civil and that\'s about it.
Whatever.

Thanks to all of ya.
It truly is a business of who ya know. So my buddy Matt used to be the LD for these guys back when they were just breaking big.
He had to leave but his "mentor" kept with them and when they had their reunion this year the wheels went into motion though we had no clue.
SO it turns out we will be the lighting crew from here on out for them if we want which means when the new album hits next year we will be on that tour which is going to Asia,Australia and back here to the states.

Since my programming skills have now surpassed Matt\'s I get to share LD credit though the design will be his.

I am CO-LD (programming and board op) for the European leg of the tour next year.

Pretty damned stoked to finally get over to the Old Country and be paid to do so.

Missing out on the South American leg in Jan./Feb. due to other commitments and the crew already in place for it.

Hot Damn! I can only hope Phish decides to get over there around the same time.
